Nathan stepped in front of Sonata in a protective manner. "You...you're my displacer?"

The glowing green figure nodded. "Yes, I am the one that sent you to your version of Equestria. I'm assuming you already know how the multiverse works?"

"I'm somewhat familiar with it, I've never come across a token before though, and I have little interest in creating one." Roden nodded in understanding.

"I understand, it's common to see a displaced weary about what the multiverse holds. Be warned though, there are displaced that can enter your world through other means. Like shall we say...Jack of Blades."

Nathan's expression became furious. "I am not having that insane bastard near my friends again."

"You may not have a choice in the matter, just be glad you found a way to drive him back last time."

Sonata placed a hand on Nathan's shoulder and looked to him worriedly. "Natty? Are you ok?"

He sighed and placed his hand on hers. "I'm fine Nata, just...memories." He shook his head and looked to Roden. "So, why show yourself now?" Just then he felt a massive surge of dark energy. "Well...that answers that question." The three of them looked over to the school and a large cloud of dark purple smoke. "How are people not noticing that?!"

"It's a trick that the monster behind it developed, only people that have ever used magic can see and feel it!"

Nathan growled and pulled out his wrench. "So what type of creature we dealing with here exactly?"

"It's a creature known as the Nightmare Fuel, a parasite across the multiverse."

Sonata hugged Nathan and looked up at the cloud. "That's a whole load of dark energy, if my sister come into contact with it then they'll be unstoppable!"

Nathan just held her close. 'I've known Sonata for over a thousand years, even though most of that time was spent apart I already know she's the one for me, and I'm not letting anything harm her!' He kissed Sonata on the lips and ran towards the cloud.

"Nathan no!" He pulled out the RYNO 2 and RYNO 5 as he turned the corner.

'Something's already messed with this moment in the timeline, that means I can go all out." Grinning like a madman he sprinted head first into the large cloud that was quickly spreading over the city. Roden just shook his head.

"I lose one bet with Author and I have to displace the trigger happy one, why couldn't I have Krystal or Zane?" He snapped his fingers and sent Sonata to safety. Pulling his scarf up a little he began sprinting towards the cloud and disappeared inside it.

Twilight and the others all ran out of the school and found the area surrounded by purple fog. Looking around they noticed that time had stopped around them. They looked over to the centre of the clearing to see Adagio, Aria and a new strange girl glowing. The new girl looked like Sonata but with a different colour scheme. Her hair was pitch black, her skin was purple and her outfit was black. Her eyes glowed hello and she had four dark tendrils growing out of her back.

The new girl, who shall be called Nighmare for convenience, looked at the girls and smirked. She held up her hand and a ball of dark energy began to form. Before she could throw it she was blasted by a barrage of plasma rockets, bullets and missiles, causing her to be flung across the clearing into a brick wall, looking as if she hadn't taken any damage at all.

The girls looked over to see Nathan holding two massive guns and shaking his head. "Seriously? Of all the beings you could shape into it had to be a crappy recolour of my little Sonata? That's just hurtful." Roden appeared beside him and crossed his arms.

"You should probably continue blasting it while it's unable to move."

"Yeah but that takes the fun out of it, I haven't had a good fight since I visited the land of behemoths. Speaking of which I wonder how Scorpan is doing these days." While he was side tracked a dark tendril shot towards him and hit him in the face. Nighmare smirked until she noticed that his head had only shifted slightly. "Hm, I actually felt that one...a little." He grinned like a psychopath and charged the she-demon.

"WAIT!!!" The both came to a screeching halt and looked to Sunset. "You guys can't fight like this here, there is too many people living in the area!"

Nightmare just looked at her with a raised brow. "And I should care why?"

"You wouldn't be killing them on purpose?" She guessed.

"Fair enough. We will settle this their way, in the battle of the bands."

Nathan just put his guns away and flipped her off. "Bring it on bitch." The fog lifted and time returned to normal. Nightmare smirked and teleported her along with the two sirens out of t he area. Nathan sighed and looked to Roden. "And here I thought I'd get to finally kill something that was worthy of being destroyed by the RYNO's."

"You'll get your chance Nathan, for now you have to prepare for the concert. Sonata is waiting for you in the Evermoon Hotel a few miles down the road, a little gift from me to you, as it took me so long to finally meet you."

"Well, gee thanks Roden." Roden handed him the key to the room and vanished. 'I'm going to be in a fancy hotel sharing the same bed with Sonata throughout my entire stay here...something better fucking happened because this is the first time I've gotten my dick back for centuries! Plus I want at least one kid before I die...don't you look at me like that, when you spend a thousand years alone then you'll know what I'm talking about.' He waved goodbye to the girls and began walking towards the hotel.
